At around 9’30” when the UA B772ER starts taxiing from what appears to be gate C22 or C24 to runway 10L, it appears as though the taxi route is clockwise via Alpha, Hotel, Charley and Alpha, over the freeway, to get to what appears to be Echo Echo to get to the downwind parallel to 10L. That’s basically almost a clockwise tour around the termina area, I would have thought that a shorter route would have been to get the counter-clockwise taxi on Bravo and then to. 10L. Is this a normal taxi route at ORD? I don’t know ORD at all, so have no local knowledge.

After crossing the bridge, you’ll typically get to N via A15 or N2, then cross 33 on N for 10L/DD.
Of course if you’re departing 10L, somebody is probably taxiing back from 10R...
